To make metallic paint in Photoshop, follow the steps given below:
- Create a new canvas
- Press ‘G’ on the keyboard, and it triggers the Gradient Effect Panel. Choose the #a4a2a3 color code for darker shades of metal, and #d2d2d2 displays the lighter shade
- Fill the background with the lighter shade
- Go to Filter, then choose Noise, and then add Noise. In addition to that, add motion blur to background
- Now we will refine the layer by going to Layer’s menu and then selecting Reveal All
- Set the blending mode to Overlay and fix its value to 60
- At last, go to Layers, select a new adjustment layer, and then select Curve. Set its value to auto
- Now click the save button. And there you have a shiny metal effect.
